Is it Priyanka Chopra week? Not only has her latest movie, Barfi, opened to positive reviews over the weekend, but her first music single, In My City, now positions her as one of the more versatile talents in Bollywood.

The stylised pop track, which also features Black Eyed Peas lead singer-producer Will.I.Am, is now available for free download in India to all Nokia phone customers via their online music store for the next 11 days only. No surprise there, given that Priyanka is the brand's celebrity ambassador.

Surprisingly you won't find a Hindi track on this album, though the actress-turned-singer promises she won’t deny her fans a glimpse of Bollywood in the accompanying music videos.

"It is an English album because it needs to be understood by an international audience. But its heart is Indian," Chopra explains, adding, "The world has to experience Bollywood, and I will have a lot of that when I shoot the video."
